Jayma Mays has admitted that she found it awkward filming a kissing scene for Glee.

The former Heroes actress, who now stars as Emma on the musical comedy, told zap2it that while she was pleased with the recent development between her character and Matthew Morrison's Will, she did not enjoy shooting the kiss.

"I jumped up and down [when I saw the kiss] - but with my husband, which was awkward and weird," she said.

"He's really cool about that sort of thing - and I'm probably less so. It's never a natural thing to do that, so it's always really awkward."

Mays added that she would "love to see Emma at home - in her home - and see how crazy that environment must be".

She said: "I know we start seeing her problems a bit more and her problems with germs and phobias and all that, but I would love to see what they come up with for her house. Is it all sterilised? Is it all white? I would love to see that!"

Glee returns to US screens Wednesday, April 13 on Fox and continues Mondays at 9pm on E4 in the UK.
